Installing xVM

I used this as a starting point to get Xen running.

1. Install the base xVM

pkg install SUNWxvmhvm
pkg install SUNWvirtinst
pkg install SUNWlibvirt
pkg install SUNWurlgrabber

2. Configure GRUB (I did this step completely different)

pfexec gedit /rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst

add:

title   ... xVM
 findroot (pool_rpool,0,a)
 kernel$ /boot/$ISADIR/xen.gz
 module$ /platform/i86xpv/kernel/$ISADIR/unix /platform/i86xpv/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B $ZFS-BOOTFS
 module$ /platform/i86pc/$ISADIR/boot_archive
 bootfs rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-1

3. Reboot into new configuration

4. 'uname -a' should contain 'i86xpv'

5. Startup the services

svcadm enable store
svcadm enable xend
svcadm enable console
svcadm enable domains
svcadm enable virtd 

6. Make sure they are running

malachi@serveris:~# svcs | grep xvm
online         19:34:15 svc:/system/xvm/store:default
online         19:34:22 svc:/system/xvm/xend:default
online         19:34:24 svc:/system/xvm/console:default
online         19:34:29 svc:/system/xvm/domains:default
online         19:34:33 svc:/system/xvm/virtd:default
 

Now to figure out how to do the domU :)
